Distractions

One of the things noticed during the debate was that Bush looked slightly distracted. Afterward it was mentioned that time spent with the victims of Florida's hurricanes. However, Wretchard's analysis of the recent actions in Samarra seem to indicate that it was Iraq, not Florida, that occupied the President's attention. As well it should, considering the importance of the events in Samarra. Iraq will never be free if an Iraq army can't be formed to do the job of holding the country together and fighting off those who would seek to keep democracy out of the country.
